Ever wanted an easy way to get down a mountain or trail after a long day hike uphill? Well the German company KOGA has come up with a solution called the Bergmönch. It's a gearless scooter equipped with a shock system and brakes that folds up into a backpack so you do not have to haul your mountain bike all the way up with you. It won't be long however that they'll figure a way to get some some chains and pedals on it though.

Started in 2006, we were a small group of friends who got together to camp and to tackle small adventures. Now, branching out to both the experienced and the novice, we are a large group out to bring down big mountains, rivers, deserts, big walls, swamps, and whatever challenges the outdoors may have in store.
